One of the MOST useful guides to SPPS and statistical procedures

This book has been a life-saver. Its clear and concise about most of the main techniques you might need for analyzing your data. Its written as a practical guide to help you understand which statistical procedure to use. I'm a PhD student in Epidemiology and this is the book that really helped clear my concepts about the various statistical techniques and most importantly how and when to use them. All the classes I took in advanced mathematical statistics were full of jargon and theoretical stuff. This book is what helped me really understand the various techniques. Consider it a like a Dummies Guide to Practical Statistics..... I hope the author writes another book called SPSS for Advanced Statistics.

From a Graduate Student

SPSS for intermediate statistics

I found this book to be very helpful in understanding the output from the SPSS statistical software. I would recommend it to anyone using this software. This book was listed as a recommended book for a class I am taking in intermediate statistics. Normally I do not buy those books listed for my classes as "recommended". This book has been so helpful in understanding the data output from the statistical software, I would definitely recommend anyone using this software to purchase this book. I especially like the tips for writing that is given in each section. these tips make your write-up of the data look and sound very professional as well as making it easy to understand the write-ups in the professional journals.
